I wasn't clear if you still could use the testing so I did re-run my
test. This patch adds back some of the missing properties, but the
the kobject names aren't set as dev_name() returns NULL:
* without this patch some of_node properties don't show up in sysfs:
root at arria10:~# ls
/sys/bus/platform/drivers/altera_freeze_br/ff200450.\<NULL\>/of_node
clocks compatible interrupt-parent interrupts reg
* with this patch, the of_node properties phandle and name are back:
root at arria10:~# ls
/sys/bus/platform/drivers/altera_freeze_br/ff200450.\<NULL\>/of_node
clocks compatible interrupt-parent interrupts
name phandle reg
root at arria10:~# cat
/sys/bus/platform/drivers/altera_freeze_br/ff200450.\<NULL\>/of_node/name
freeze_controllerroot at arria10:~# ("freeze_controller" w/o the \n so
the name is correct)
* with or without the patch I see the behavior I reported yesterday,
kobj names are NULL.
